Chapter 106 Sudden Enlightenment
The old man Jin Ni said calmly, "This is not me trying to bluff you with an incomplete technique. It's just that this technique can only be understood and mastered by first understanding and refining the first step before the second move will appear."
The dragon nodded in agreement, "Most of the cultivation techniques they gave us were like this. However, cultivation is not something that can be accomplished overnight. Little one, don't be impatient or greedy. First, choose one technique and cultivate it to a certain level before moving on to others."
Do not practice more than three books at the same time; trying to do too much at once will only lead to confusion and make it difficult to master them.
As the dragon continued talking, it became more enthusiastic and offered Yunxi more guidance on her cultivation, from which Yunxi benefited greatly.
Seeing this, the other demonic beasts couldn't help but say a few words after the dragon finished its instructions.
As Yunxi listened to these few words and those few words, she suddenly had an epiphany.
Seeing Yunxi enter meditation, the scene fell silent for a moment.
The dragon sighed softly, "This excitement will eventually return to calm."
Some of the other demonic beasts remained silent after hearing this, glanced at Yunxi, and then returned to their original forms and went back to sleep.
The gluttonous beast looked somewhat reluctant and murmured, "I haven't had enough yet~"
The white fox snorted, "We've survived hundreds of thousands of years, how come we can't even handle a few days of excitement?"
After hearing the white fox's words, none of the demon beasts said anything more. Some went to sleep, some read their stories, and Taotie, unusually, stopped eating. Reluctantly, it rummaged through the pile of food on the ground and put it away, then returned to its original form and lay down on the ground.
The dragon continued to watch Yunxi, as if protecting her.
Yunxi, who had achieved enlightenment and become one with the universe, was completely unaware of this.

In the Red Star Brigade, Ning Xuan looked at her water arrow spell with satisfaction. She had been able to condense three water arrows at the same time, instead of just one at a time. Moreover, she felt that the water arrows were much more solid than before.
The previous water jets only scraped off some bark when they hit the trees, but this time, the three water jets were able to penetrate about 1 centimeter deep into the bark.
Ning Xuan felt she had made great progress.
If used to shoot someone, it might not seriously injure them, but it could teach them a lesson. However, if you aim for a vital spot, it might actually kill them.
However, in the era she lived in, there probably wasn't much opportunity to use a fatal move.
But let's refine it first, just in case we need it someday.
That's right, Ning Xuan has successfully cultivated to the second level of Qi Refining. Although it's only a small step forward, she feels that she has become much stronger.
One is that her dantian capacity has increased a little. Although it's not a lot, she can now clean more than half of the chicken coop at once using the cleaning technique. It used to take several days to clean a round, but now she can clean a round in two days.
Aunt Ge and the others were overjoyed at Ning Xuan's return. "While you were away, Xiao Xuan, the team leader would come over every few days and say that we were getting lazy without you around. We didn't clean the chicken coop as often, and the smell got stronger."
"Yes, yes, we were wronged. We cleaned just like before. It was only after Xu Zhiqing reminded us that we realized you had secretly cleaned a second time behind us before."
The day after Ning Xuan returned, she resumed working at the chicken farm and was warmly welcomed by the older women. Moreover, her title changed from Ning Zhiqing to Xiao Xuan.
Ning Xuan thought these older women were quite cute sometimes.
As before, after finishing her work of feeding the chickens, she would take out the puppet to slack off, and then go to the back mountain to cultivate.
She discovered that the deeper she went into the mountains, the better the concentration of spiritual energy became, so she now goes deep into the mountains to cultivate every day. Fortunately, she has a defensive array plate, otherwise she really wouldn't dare to go so far to cultivate, as there is always the possibility of large wild beasts appearing at any time.
She is also wearing a low-grade defensive pendant, given to her by Yunxi. It can raise a thin protective shield around her body. Although it may not be very effective against attacks from large wild beasts, it is more than enough to keep out mosquitoes.
With the defensive array, the bewildering array, and the spirit-gathering array stacked together, plus the protective shield, Ning Xuan dared to cultivate in the deep mountains. Moreover, her efficiency increased. Originally, she planned to level up in about two months, but she successfully reached the second level of Qi Refining in just over a month.
She was happy and wanted to celebrate, but she didn't want to reveal her reason for the celebration, so she just made up an excuse to have a big meal.
Zhou Zhipeng exclaimed in surprise, "What day is this? Ning Xuan, why are you making so much food again?"
Ning Xuan calmly said, "Today is a good day. Does the fact that the chicken farm has a few hundred more chicks today count?"
Xu Jiajia burst out laughing, "Our chicken farm has chicks hatching every day, you know."
"There's no real reason, I'm just happy, I just want to eat." Ning Xuan retorted.
Lu Xun nodded. This is a big shot; do whatever makes him happy.
Lu Xun already knew from his older brother that Ning Xuan had made a great contribution, but he didn't know exactly how great it was; his brother dismissed him with a "secret."
Then his brother complained that he hadn't told him about Ning Xuan's strength. Lu Xun felt very innocent. He was used to it and didn't think about it that much. His brother didn't even ask.
When he pressed for more information, his brother refused to say anything. Lu Xun was speechless. Fine, fine, if it can't be said, it's a secret. He understood.
So Lu Xun had already guessed that Ning Xuan had powerful connections, and now that he knew Ning Xuan was quite capable herself, he felt that Ning Xuan had the ability to do whatever she wanted and eat whatever she wanted.
Ning Xuan also noticed that Lu Xun seemed more profound since she came back this time. She didn't know what was going on, but she wasn't the type to gossip and asked him.
It can only be said that this was a coincidental misunderstanding; Lu Xun was quiet because he was still processing his brother's phone call.
Ning Xuan still hadn't completely shaken off her previous impressions from reading the book, and still viewed Lu Xun as a rather deep and calculating person.
In fact, after Ning Xuan started cultivating, she remembered what Yun Xi had said: eating too much mortal food would increase impurities in the body, and it would take time and effort to remove them, thus delaying cultivation.
Ning Xuan tried eating less or taking fasting pills, but, well, the taste was unpleasant and she couldn't stand it at all, so Ning Xuan continued to resume her daily routine of eating and drinking as usual.
Tonight's feast includes braised pork belly, squirrel-shaped mandarin fish, shredded chicken, spicy hot pot, split garlic shrimp, mushroom soup, and water spinach. The staple food is white rice.
When there are no holidays or festivals and no guests, this kind of food is really the best.
But to their surprise, just as they sat down to start eating, they heard a loud commotion coming from the educated youth compound.
They weren't the type to cause trouble, but the noise was loud, and out of curiosity, they decided to cover the food and go check what was going on.
